Immigration journey is finally over!

Finally the very very expensive and stressful immigration journey is over. British passport has been received today. Still says European Union on the passport. :D

Re: Wifes Application

You do NOT need grandparent details for passport application as a Naturalised citizen. Remember the same form is used for EVERYONE, British born and other. Note also that you can only apply for the passport once the ceremony has been completed. Brilliant thanks for clarifying! :D Private ceremony i...

Re: Wifes Application

One last question just to clarify and put my mind at rest.

We haven't registered in the UK as married. Just married abroad and then wife came over on spouse visa. Is this still OK for british citizenship application.

Re: How to Apply

Correct. Then you can also use the new service to submit your supporting documents.

Can you send me a link to where the new service is so I can read up about it

So I only apply for passport after everything is approved?

Does British Citizenship and Naturalisation mean the same thing?

Re: SET(M) 5 years ONLINE application - takes longer?

Hi nick0811

Mine has finally been approved. Received BRP on Tuesday! Sent application on 20th Aug via Postal.

I think yours should hopefully be processed very soon, as you sent it before me. It's been a long wait for all of us

Now waiting for my docs to be returned. Hope they haven't lost them :?

Re: SET(M) 5 years ONLINE application - takes longer?

Looking at the Timeline threads, someone posted their SET(M) application via post on 28th August 2018 and received approval on 30/10/2018. I posted it 8 days before him and still waiting. Some are still waiting from July. Just a joke the way HO process these applications. The approval should literal...
